A research team at the University of Limerick in Ireland has developed a new method of producing carbon fiber while drastically reducing its energy footprint. Researchers at UL are leading a ...

[Turner Hunt] is bringing carbon fiber manufacture into the hands of makers — at considerable cost savings! So how does it work? The machine wraps the filament around the workpiece, not unlike a ...

Dr. Han Joong Tark's team at KERI's Nano Hybrid Technology Research Center has successfully fabricated "functional wires," ...

Compared to existing synthetic methods, the new approach delivers a high yield of 200 milligrams of GO per gram of carbon fiber. This efficient conversion rate makes it viable for large-scale ...

Richard Olsson, Professor, Polymeric Materials, KTH Royal Institute of Technology The method transforms carbon fibers through electrochemical oxidation in a water and nitric acid bath. Similar to how ...

The result is a hybrid between the traditional hand-laid carbon fiber process and something you’d see in additive manufacturing (a.k.a 3D-printing). “McLaren’s Automated Rapid Tape method ...
